Oh, my god, Kenny. Thank you so much for bringing Biswa and picking his brains about such a wide variety of things. Watching Biswa's standup over the years, I always got the feeling that he is someone who is deeply self-reflective, philosophical, and at times nihilistic, but now I know for a fact that all those things are true. Hard to believe that nobody before you had sat this gem of a person down and recorded an interview or a conversation with him in this manner. AaaHhhhhhh haha I haven't felt this way about a podcast ever in my life. It feels like my thoughts are being voiced and challenged at the same time. This is a great show and I am a fan. Thank you for all you are and all you do, Kenny!

Otherwise, we'll never outgrow the inherent racism and bigotry that's plaguing our society. Kindness and compassion will automatically follow when we can correct narrow mindedness.

[@ayushithapliyal]

Hey Kenny! This is probably the first comment that I've posted on KZbin (as far as I can remember) but #SimpleKen is like a breath of fresh air. I can't remember the last time people were actually finishing any 45 minutes long video. Everyone is complaining how our attention span is getting shorter and the movies, cricket matches everything is being squeezed down. But I believe it's only the mediocre content that fails to keep them engaged. And of course shorter content means more money. Anyway, Simple Ken can be an example. If only you were making money out of this. 😆 Keep up the good work and we love you dude.

@@KennySebastian you do read comments.. I came here specially to read comments (stopped watching after the 2 videos) ..

[@bluedude6991]

So I was listening to this while doing chemistry (which I obviously stopped doing) and my book is now full of points which I had to comment, and here goes: -This was a brain treat. Very thought provoking, exhilarating and yet radiating contentment. (Very rare combo.) -I used to fear aging. But seeing you guys assign uncertainty to the present made me realise the future was also going to be a collection of new fleeting moments, nothing to fear, nothing which should invoke dread. Hearing about Biswa's grandma helped a lot too. -The one comment about ambition vs contentment really hit home. Alongside the futility of calling brick and mortar "home", and that of calling sub-subjective states: "Sucess and failure." -The self awareness bit was also really interesting to delve into inside my own head and judge where I stood with respect to that. -So yeah, this was all but boring, 😉 Thanks for recording this, as someone who is trying to draw the venn diagram between their journey and destination, this helped A LOT. Indeed at the end of all how's, there is a why, which is largely unanswered. Perhaps unanswerable, perhaps not. Accepting that makes one add a tint of curiosity and contentment to their nihilism. Which maybe makes it an entirely new kind of philosophy. This conversation was a treat to be a part of. Please keep making this, and do call biswa again.

Comedians talking about consciousness is a next step in humanity. Dont worry guys you have triggered most minds to think in a transformative direction.

[@shaktiseshadri1674]

question: I am an introvert yet bold and expressive when it comes to talking to people, not too conscious about what others think, be it when I pose funny or while cracking jokes upon myself and I feel this gives others the freedom to take me light and crack jokes on me yet i take it sportive and more importantly the feeling that "it's her she doesn't mind" or I don't know how to put it in words..its basically taking advantage of me and they somehow convince me in doing what they want even if I say NO at first. And I now feel this is because I express myself out there and should rather wear a mask which will make people think twice before talking to me. So ken what's your perspective about this to be whimsical, funny and center of attention or the wise, a little serious respectful one when you are around people #simpleken

[@iffatrizvi9531]

Wow I related a lot to your description of yourslef in the beginning and I've been that person, only that went away when I had a change of environment and met new people, they do not do what my previous friends used to... The same taking me lightly stuff and trust me that's a refreshing change so maybe you need to find people who see you for who you are and not take you too lightly, a little is okay alternatively you could try to tell those people that you feel like this... Sorry for the unwanted advice I never do this, just related too much to your description of yourslef

[@kainatkhizar7910]

So damn relatable.

[@Dr_Jeeshma]

This is damn relatable..

[@yajatgulati]

I feel strangely the same way but I feel like at some point no matter how you act there's a part of your personality that is strongly linked with how you behave around people so maybe you're not putting that much of a mask when you feel like you're "acting like the whimsical or the serious one" but it's really just a part of who you are. So maybe if you think of it that way and not be overtly aware of how you act around people you can understand yourself better in that sense. (not giving any advice tho lol)

This is how people actually want to think, or the stuff we want to listen to, without having a point to make or a place to reach. This is perhaps an actual example of the "journey" being more fun, than the destination. Thanks for starting this, it's interesting without being intrusive.

There's certainly a theory about that. *Dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins* are considered to be happiness giving chemicals.

37:58 This hits so deeply that, no words truer existed. I give the same damn advise I should be giving to myself then to people who are my friends. Basically, it's not for them but me reciting my own words, loud and clear enough that they reach me if not them. I have pulled myself out of a situation just by thinking how much am I standing true to my own words. I can't voice out things concerning me to people. They think I am sorted/have no feelings that mess me up but the reality is that I have been broken the same time as them and somehow at that time had gathered the courage to talk it out but before me they did. Now, I can't. I have this tripping point where I cry alone in a room full of people and no one is able to see it. I am not able to do that anymore even for small things like, "what makes me happy?". Self reliance has become an integral part of me that I neither want to leave nor keep.

Biswa, "..people still believe that there are answers.. there are no answers." That goes hand in hand with this random thought that I had at 2 am a few years ago and it has completely shifted my perspective. The thought was that nothing we know about anything, be it our name, the colour of the sky, the effect of paracetamol, nothing that we know is 100% percent true. Everything that we know was created by another human being. Us being called 'human beings' was created by a human being. So yeah, definitely resonated with what you guys were talking about there. This episode was quite the yo-yo with biswa slipping into the dark and Kenny trying to reel back the philosophical talk, but it was quite interesting to listen to both of your perspectives!

There is nothing as delightful as listening to two insightful people talking....it is very rare that a conversation makes u think....and that's about it...We do not listen to stuff that makes us think! Thank you so much Kenny for bringing up this format...keep up the good work👍🏼

[@ashwinr1994]

Man! Biswa what a guy! I would love to be part of a philosophical discussion with him!

[@SuchitraSubramanya9]

OMG I cant just pause or skip any part two actually intellectual ppl talking sounds like this. Just amazing and Biswa ur amazing I think u sjould also do a Podcast it would be amazing to listen to.

The problem with 'why' is that it assumes a purpose. But there may not be any purpose to some things.

[@darcsoul5087]

Like our lives :)

[@thisisadiman]

@@akarshshrivastava6764 True. And that should be the attitude as well. If we don't know, just accept that instead of assuming a purpose.

someone once told me ," people who make others laugh , are the ones who are sad inside " i felt that !! truly enlightening !!

[@Sra4825]

Man, Bishwa hits so many right notes, I mean I believe, all the problems in India can be solved by providing quality education to everyone, and also by thinking about where we're headed, We've been as a nation, proud of our history, our heritage, culture, blah blah, but then by enjoying that comfort zone, we forget where we're headed, learn from you past and plan for your future, hence the cocoon is what we need to break, and then we can actually think of flying.

[@abhiavasthi624]

Thank you for this podcast, this has put a lot of things in perspective, I really needed to hear this, and i can't explain how helpful this has been for me. Thanks Kenny.

I think I'm 5 months too late but who cares Kenny said he reads comments. This was so nice to watch. It was super thought provoking and watching this is August, the riots seemed like the smallest of our problems this year. Y'all are amazing and #simpleken made my day and reminded me of simpler, calming times.

[@pujitjha]

"People give the advice that they want to give themselves because they feel that they're doing to themself" Wow man. One of the many amazing lines in the episode

[@pradeepg29]

“My friends are not all that great, they keep doing something something.” :P Don’t we all feel that way about our successful friends.

[@srishtipal6301]

This podcast taught me more than my school or college ever did. Thankyou :')

Death is inevitable.. so till the inevitable, informal enlightenment through simple Ken seems blissful

I don't have a question but just wanted to say that I've been stuck in an unwelcome existential crisis of late and this cheered me up immensely. You're doing great, sweety 👏🏼

If you keep asking How, How, How, How... Eventually you will reach a point where you don't know. A lot of How's make a Why ~Biswa Kalyan Rath 2020

Kenny and Biswa speaking Hindi Me: Doesn’t understand a word but still enjoying being a part of the conversation

[@ashishgupta7603]

"Love stories are popular in India bcz we r not allowed to LOVE" , "people ask others for the solution of their pblms" eye opening sentences

It’s 10pm here, and I was trying to go to bed... But, Kenny anddddd Biswa? Guess I’ll go to bed at 11! 😄

[@shirajnaidu5683]

Great

[@theneanderthal69]

I would like to hear how you'd pronounce "Biswa"

[@piyushnagawat24]

I understand but who goes to bed at 10???

[@chasityjhanji2160]

TheNeanderthal Haha, I think I would love to hear myself as well. I literally say it out loud multiple times anytime I watch something with him on it, and try to convince myself that I’ve got it right! 😂

[@chasityjhanji2160]

piyush nagawat Lots of people... Losers, the elderly... and people who work 13-hr shifts and wake up at 5am 🤪

[@SR-em8wl]

Glad Biswa joined. Always admired Biswa for the amount of stuff he knows and the subtle way he portrays it. Makes us think. A simply amazing combo.

[@shifafarheen20]

Since corona outbreak, a school teacher ( that's me) grounded at home. I currently live in Saudi Arabia, isolated right now. when I listen to your channel everyday with a morning cup of tea it reminds me of my good old days in bangalore. Miss you Bengaluru 😍

[@varshinis4583]

Best episode of "this long recording of two people talking" lol. I really like how you guys bare able to blend psychology, philosophy, and politics and a lot other things while making it feel so calm and relaxing and laughable. Haha great job! Looking forward for more

[@pratikstiflerbharali719]

Irony of the country. Comedians are talking serious stuff, political leaders doing comedy "Doland Trump".

I studied in a Convent school and I remember we used to have every morning first class of moral education when the teacher (sister/nuns) used to share some stories with morals. I always felt this is the most unimportant class... But now I realized that those stories and 'thoughts of the day' help us building empathy and open-mindedness. I am happy that I studied in the school where they valued the morals to be built in the kids and not just merits, marks, and academics

[@mnair6636]

Biswa should have a podcast of his own. He has become more confident since Pretentious Movie Reviews and his voice is perfect for the radio.
